... the 20th century has been characterized by three developments of great
political importance: The growth of democracy, the growth of corporate
power, and the growth of corporate propaganda as a means of protecting
corporate power against democracy.
~  ~ In this possibly terminal phase of human existence, democracy and freedom are more than just ideals to be valued - they may be essential to survival. ~ ~ The thing about democracy, beloveds, is that it is not neat, orderly, or quiet. It requires a certain relish for confusion. ~ ~ The experience of democracy is like the experience of life itself-always changing, infinite in its variety, sometimes turbulent and all the more valuable for having been tested by adversity. ~ ~ To safeguard democracy the people must have a keen sense of independence, self-respect, and their oneness. ~ ~ The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter. ~ ~ It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried. ~ ~ In a democracy the poor will have more power than the rich, because there are more of them, and the will of the majority is supreme. ~ ~ Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. ~ ~ The world is weary of statesmen whom democracy has degraded into politicians. ~ ~ Democracy is on trial in the world, on a more colossal scale than ever before. ~ ~ Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few. ~  |
